Prime Minister Anthony Albanese took shots at Opposition leader Peter Dutton over questions raised during a heated debate concerning Labor’s response to rising inflation rates.
“He’s very angry and frustrated … I too would be angry if I had presided over a 2.1 per cent increase, the largest quarterly increase … in March 2020,” Mr Albanese said during parliamentary Question Time on Monday.
“That was the highest inflation this century was on their watch,” said Mr Albanese.
“He’s angry, he’s had the angry pills … I would’ve thought you’d have the weekend off, he could’ve relaxed, chilled out a bit, come here on Monday and be a bit happier.
“That’s what his groups are telling him, he’s got to be happier … smile a bit more - remember when he ran for the leadership and he was going to smile some more?”
